---------------------------------
Thanks for checking, yes, you are right, I actually checked in
bugPig-3615.patch, sorry. I rolled back and check in PIG-3615.patch instead.
Now we should be good.

> It's a common (and good) convention to quote fixed point numbers when storing
> them as json. The reason being that majority of json libraries will
> implicitly load any number value as a floating point number and if you care
> about data integrity this will make you very sad.
> This update makes JsonLoader able to load BigDecimal values from quoted
> values (the old jackson library that we're using doesn't support this through
> the current approach) as well as making JsonStorage store BigDecimal values
> as quoted strings.
